Solid Control Operator information

What is a solid control operator?

Solid Control Operators are professionals responsible for managing and maintaining equipment that separates solids from drilling fluids on oil and gas rigs. Their main duty is to ensure the drilling fluids remain clean and reusable, which helps protect drilling equipment and enhances operational efficiency. They monitor solid control systems, perform routine maintenance, and troubleshoot any issues that arise. Solid Control Operators play a crucial role in ensuring environmental compliance and minimizing waste during drilling operations.

What are some common challenges faced by solid control operators on drilling sites?

Solid Control Operators often work in fast-paced environments where they must monitor and maintain equipment that separates solids from drilling fluids. Common challenges include troubleshooting mechanical issues with shakers, centrifuges, and desanders under tight deadlines to avoid costly downtime. Operators also need to adapt to changing drilling conditions, work long shifts in remote locations, and collaborate closely with drilling crews to ensure safety and efficiency. Developing strong technical troubleshooting skills and effective communication is crucial for success in this role.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a solid control operator, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Solid Control Operator, you need a solid understanding of drilling operations, mechanical aptitude, and familiarity with fluid management—often supported by a high school diploma or relevant technical training. Experience with centrifuges, shale shakers, desanders, and related solids control equipment is typically required, along with safety certifications like H2S or OSHA. Strong problem-solving abilities, attention to detail, and effective teamwork help operators manage fast-paced field environments and respond quickly to operational issues. These skills and qualities are essential for maintaining drilling efficiency, minimizing environmental impact, and ensuring safety on site.

What is the difference between Solid Control Operator vs Mud Logger?

AspectSolid Control OperatorMud Logger
CredentialsCertifications in equipment operation and safetyGeological or engineering background, certifications optional
Work EnvironmentDrilling sites, handling solids separation equipmentOn-site at drilling locations, monitoring mud properties
Industry UsageCommonly used in oil & gas drilling operationsUsed for geological analysis and drilling data recording

The Solid Control Operator primarily manages equipment that separates solids from drilling fluids, ensuring efficient drilling operations. In contrast, a Mud Logger focuses on analyzing drilling mud and recording geological data. Both roles are essential in drilling projects but differ in responsibilities and skill sets.

This is an exciting opportunity for a machinist who values variety, takes immense pride in their craftsmanship, and enjoys tackling unique challenges in a dynamic environment.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Set up and operate CNC machining centres (mill and/or lathe) to produce precision components according to engineering specifications.
  • Interpret complex engineering drawings, including GD&T, tolerances, surface finish callouts, and datum references, ensuring faithful reproduction.
  • Load and prove out programs, accurately set work offsets and tool offsets, and make necessary dimensional adjustments to maintain tight tolerances.
  • Select, install, and meticulously inspect cutting tools; proactively monitor wear and replace as required to uphold quality standards.
  • Securely load, locate, and clamp workpieces using a variety of vises, fixtures, and precision workholding methods.
  • Execute thorough in-process and first-article inspections utilizing precision instruments such as calipers, micrometers, bore gauges, height gauges, indicators, and gauge pins.
  • Machine a diverse range of materials, including various alloy and tool steels (e.g., 4140), stainless steel, cast iron, and aluminum.
  • Accurately document inspection results, setup sheets, and any non-conformances, contributing to our quality control processes.
  • Collaborate effectively with programming, engineering, and quality teams to resolve drawing queries, address fit issues, and propose process improvements.
  • Perform routine machine maintenance, including monitoring coolant levels and concentration, chip removal, lubrication, and filter checks, to ensure optimal machine performance.
  • Maintain a pristine, organized, and safe work area, adhering strictly to all health and safety policies and procedures.
  • Actively support and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives focused on enhancing cycle time, tooling selection, and setup efficiency.

Requirements & Qualifications:

  • Minimum of 2–3 years of hands-on CNC machining experience within a precision manufacturing setting.
  • Demonstrated ability to confidently read and interpret engineering drawings, with practical application of GD&T principles.
  • Proficiency in using precision measuring instruments and a proven capability to consistently work to tight tolerances.
  • Solid working knowledge of speeds, feeds, and effective tooling selection across a range of materials.
  • Comfortable with making offset adjustments and independently troubleshooting dimensional issues to ensure part quality.
  • Physical capability to lift up to 50 lbs and stand for extended periods.
  • Reliable attendance and a willingness to support overtime as production demands require.
  • Preferred:
  • General Machinist (429A) certificate of qualification or completion of a recognized apprenticeship.
  • Experience with Fanuc, Heidenhain, Siemens, or Mazak controls.
  • Proficiency in editing G-code at the machine and/or working knowledge of CAM software (e.g., Mastercam, NX, Esprit).
  • Experience with 4-axis or 5-axis machining, horizontal machining centres, or pallet-based systems.
  • A background in tooling, fixtures, jigs, or low-volume/high-mix job shop environments.
  • Previous experience in automotive, aerospace, or heavy industrial manufacturing sectors.
  • Familiarity with CMM inspection or a history of collaborating with a quality department on first articles.

If you are a skilled CNC Lathe Operator passionate about precision, eager for diverse projects, and ready to make a significant impact, we encourage you to apply. Join IATGlobal Manufacturing and contribute your expertise to a team that builds the future of precision components.
